Intro: C  Em7  F   (2x)  

G   
Don't wish it away   
      Em7                F     (C  F/C   C  F/C    C  F/C)   
Don't look at it like it's forever   
C               G   
Between you and me   
                 Bm       F                    (C  F/C   C  F/C    C  F/C)   
I could honestly say that things can only get better   
        C       G   B7                  Em    
And while I'm away dust out the demons inside   
    Dm  G7/D       C                    G   
And it won't be long before you and me run   
                    Am     F         G    Am7  G/B   
To the place in our hearts where we hide   

      C                     G/B         F   
And I guess that's why they call it the blues   
           C              G/B               F   
Time on my hands could be time spent with you   
C/E              G   
Laughing like children   
            Am   
Living like lovers   
C/E          F                  D7/F#   
Rolling like thunder, under the covers   
      F                     F/G             C  Em7  F   
And I guess that's why they call it the blues
   


G   
Just stare into space   
Em7         F           (C  F/C   C  F/C    C  F/C) 
Picture my face in your hands   
C               G   
Live for each second   
              Bm      F                  (C  F/C   C  F/C    C  F/C)  
Without hesitation, never forget I'm your man   
C        G       B7                     Em       
Wait on me girl, cry in the night if it helps   
Dm  G7/D          C               G   
But more than ever I simply love you   
             Am  F      G    Am7  G/B 
More than I love life itself   

Chorus
